Need help working with the Analogmame32 configuration file please
Rhetro:
Hey Urebel.
I'm getting there. Really.
You said:
In Analog+, make sure multiplemice and switchablemice are set to 1 in the ini file.
Rhetro:
EUREKA!!! (kind of)
3 out of 4 spinners working!!!!!
one of my tornados went south >:(
So I think the problems is solved!!! Finally.
One point though.
I got warlords working without a clearmamepro scan of the rom file. I couldn't created a dat file on analog+XP v 81 either. it wouldn't let me. I know I know. If it ain't broke.... But why couldn't clearmame do this (I guess this is a clearmame question)
I guess you have to create a folder in the roms directory and unzip the rom file per game as I have read. In otherwords (roms>warlords>warlords bin files after extraction.
So Mame cannot read it zipped. Correct?
thanks in advance
u_rebelscum:
Cmpro has a "old_mame" setting for mame's older than 0.84-0.85. When you create a dat file in the profiles, change the emulator from "mame" to "old_mame".
You don't need to unzip the bin files. Mame treats a zipped file like a folder. So you can due like you said, or leave it: roms>warlords.zip>warlords bin files still in the zip file. IIRC, the zipped file is read first, and the folder is only read if no zip file.
Rhetro:
Thanks Urebel
Got the zip file thing sorted out. For some reason it didn't seem to work the first time (I probably messed something up).
I tried the old_mame selection for creating the datfile. It created it ok, but clearmame did not let me load the datfile.
I got a:
Database update is needed. It's necessary to run:
C:\Mame\mameanalogXP.exe -listinfo
if you experience problems...blah blah blah
after aborting at Puckman, it went to :
found an incomplete datfile. Or bad exe output...blah blah blah
Then it said:
can't receive data. Make sure it's a valid one (or something to that effect.
I'll paste all of this and see if Roman can figure it out.
unless you've been down this road before!
Thanks.
